A paper-filled capacitor is charged to a potential difference of V0=2.5 V. The dielectric constant of paper is k=3.7 . The capac

itor is then disconnected from the charging circuit and the paper filling is withdrawn, allowing air to fill the gap between the plates. Find the new potential difference V1 of the capacitor. V1= _____ V
While the capacitor is disconnected from the charging circuit, an unknown substance is inserted between the plates. The plates then attain a potential difference that is 0.55 times the original potential difference V0 (when paper filled the capacitor). What is this unknown substance's dielectric constant?

Answer:

k =  6.72

Explanation:

K of paper = 3.7

k of air = 1

Given that charge Q on the capacitor is constant because cell is disconnected from the circuit. So

V = Q / C = 2.5

Capacity becomes C / 3.7 in air .

capacity becomes C/3.7 when paper is replaced by air .

V₁ = Q / (C/3.7)

= 3.7 Q/C

3.7 x 2.5

= 9.25 V

In the second case ,

capacitance  due to new unknown dielectric k

= C/3.7 x k

= kC / 3.7 ( Capacitance in air is C/3.7 )

V ( new ) = Q / ( kC/3.7 )

= 3.7 Q/kC

.55 x 2.5 = 3.7 x( 2.5 / k )

k = 3.7 / .55

= 6.72

lasie4. A 4 kg object is displaced to the right by a distance of 12 m underthe influence of the following forces: a 17 Nforce pu
Oksanka [162]

The work done by a constant force in a rectilinear motion is given by:

W=Fd\cos\theta

where F is the magnitude of the force, d is the distance and θ is the angle between the force and the displacement vector.

In this case we have two forces then we need to add the work done by each of them; for the first force we have a magnitude of 17 N, a displacement of 12 m and and angle of 0° (since both the displacement and the force point right); for the second force we have a magnitude of 36 N, a displacement of 12 m and an angle of 30°. Plugging these values we have that the total work is:

\begin{gathered} W=(17)(12)\cos0+(36)(12)\cos30 \\ W=578.123 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the total work done is 578.123 J and the answer is option E

The elements selenium and oxygen are both poor electrical conductors. In which section of the periodic table are they
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Nonmetals

Explanation:

Nonmetals   they are bad conductors of heat and electricity except graphite.

Metalloids   they are less conductors of electricity than metals.

Noble gases  they conduct electricity.

Halogens they are not metals and do not conduct electricity.

From this information, we conclude that Oxygen and Selenium are nonmetals.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Crumple zones are designed to absorb and redistribute the force of a collision. ... Also known as a crush zone, crumple zones are areas of a vehicle that are designed to deform and crumple in a collision. This absorbs some of the energy of the impact, preventing it from being transmitted to the occupants.
